Chapter 485: The Throne of Emptiness, Baiyin Jijun, An Junxuan
Everything happened too fast; in the blink of an eye, Tao Baibai had resolved the battle.
It was not until Lingxin was face-down, pressed into the shattered ground by him, that the excruciating pain of her arm being forcibly torn off finally reached her central nervous system.
"Ah!"
Lingxin roared as if out of control; it was not just pain, but also fear, despair, unwillingness, and turbulent emotions that were almost overflowing from her chest.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck... fuck!"
Blood mixed with saliva and mucus sprayed from her mouth and nose. She tried to get up, but was stepped on by a foot; the terrifying power easily crushed her strength of less than twenty points, leaving her unable to move.
Her left hand twitched instinctively, but the next moment, a powerful, overwhelming impact arrived.
Bang!
"Argh! I didn't use my ability!"
Lingxin was completely out of control, screaming like a madwoman. The intense impact shattered her left hand along with the ground, leaving only a small portion of her arm capable of moving.
【You have suffered an attack from a special ability. Based on your Spirit attribute, you can obtain the following information.】
【You have suffered an attack from Arrogant Sight. You have suffered the effects of a severed limb...】
The information on the space panel was not rich. Tao Baibai's Spirit attribute even seemed to be much higher than hers; she simply could not judge what type of Reincarnator Tao Baibai was. No, to be precise, Lingxin had already lost the ability to think calmly at this moment.
She was just screaming and yelling wildly, venting her emotions.
It was clear she had luckily survived that team battle with great difficulty and had gone to great lengths to obtain this Devil Fruit. She hadn't played enough, hadn't killed enough; how could she die here...
Various crazy emotions surged within Lingxin's heart, but having lost both arms, she was currently powerless to struggle.
"What do we do? 【One Shot One Soul】 has also been killed. Without his Tishin control, we can't possibly beat Tao Baibai in close-quarters combat..."
Heixiang spoke very quickly. Listening to Lingxin's screams, a sense of panic also spread in his heart.
As one Reincarnator of the same level as himself died after another, the bad premonition in Heixiang's heart became incredibly strong. His group was considered quite powerful in their respective mission worlds, which was why they could hunt other Reincarnators and gain a Fierce Person reputation.
But compared to a Monster like Tao Baibai, they seemed as weak as ordinary people. Heixiang saw it clearly: One Shot One Soul had done nothing at all before being killed in one hit.
But if he were facing One Shot One Soul's disgusting Tishin ability, because he was not a Tishinshizhe, he would instead have to avoid close-range combat.
"Hehe, you all are, after all, just a group of Reincarnators of this level..."
A sigh came from in front. In that tone of contempt and mockery, the other party no longer hid their disdain for him and the others.
Heixiang turned his head and saw the Reincarnator who had been hiding his identity until now, and who was indeed the only one he was unfamiliar with, slowly lift his hood.
Under the hood was a young male with black hair and a baby face. His short black hair was well-trimmed, and his pupils were one blue and one gold—it was unclear if he had deliberately made them that way through an Avatar or if he possessed some special eye technique.
Heixiang frowned.
"You are..."
He had no impression of such a high-tier Fierce Person in the space. Could it be that he wasn't a Reincarnator from the East District?
An Junxuan shook his head, then completely unfastened the robe on his body, revealing a white robe with black edges underneath. That style of clothing made Heixiang feel inexplicably familiar.
"Heixiang, right? Thank you for collecting some data for me during the previous battle. As a reward..."
A hair-raising fear suddenly arose in Heixiang's heart. He immediately realized the thoughts of the person in front of him. With a tap of his feet, a pitch-black Barrier emerged from outside his body.
This layer of black Barrier instantly sliced through the roof beneath his feet, and he fell straight down through it.
At the same time, he spread his hands, reversed the Barrier, and his Witch Power began to rise, releasing an indiscriminate curse toward the outside world.
"As a reward, I will let you die without pain, and you won't be tortured to death by Tao Baibai like Lingxin."
The peaceful voice continued to ring in Heixiang's ear. He turned his head and only saw the black-haired man emerging from the air, no more than a meter away from him.
"You..."
Pfft!
Pitch-black light bloomed, like a flash of blade light exploding.
The next moment, warm blood sprayed out. The man stepped coldly to the side, and not a single drop of blood landed on him.
His right hand was covered in a pitch-black luster, and his fingers, held like a blade, slashed through Heixiang's throat. The movement of his strike was no different from how Tao Baibai had killed Xingliu earlier.
Step, step, step, step.
Footwork sounded from outside the building. An Junxuan didn't need to look to know that Tao Baibai had already arrived outside this pitch-black building, separated from him by a wall, staring at each other from a distance of about seven or eight meters.
"Hey, hey, hey, what exactly have you done, you guy?"
Tao Baibai's voice was cruel and eerie, as if that voice were like a venomous snake, pervasive and constantly displaying its aggressiveness, making people uncomfortable.
An Junxuan did not like this kind of guy, and found it even harder to accept that he and other powerful Reincarnators could only actively apply and be assigned to the 【Baiyin Jijun】, while there was news indicating that a high-level member of the Gathering had issued a 【Feicui Invitation】 to a lunatic like Tao Baibai.
That was a pass to enter the 【Feicui Jijun】, the most talented Reincarnator cluster under the 【Empty Throne】 that spanned the four major regions of the Reincarnation Space.
Being able to become a member of the 【Feicui Jijun】 meant that those powerful Reincarnators under the Empty Throne with numbers within the top 10 believed that Tao Baibai could become a member of the 【Gold Battle Group】 and possessed the potential to become a 【Strongest】.
An Junxuan did not hide his jealousy, but what he found even more unacceptable was that Tao Baibai had rejected that invitation.
The thing he sought but could not obtain was treated like discarded shoes by this lunatic.
"I deliberately left this group of guys for you and gave you plenty of time to prepare, but that wasn't for you to kill them."
Bai Cangshu stood outside the wall, his voice calm, not angry or furious as one might imagine, because he had already realized that the person standing inside the wall at this moment was likely the key factor for the space issuing this 【Deadly Duel Mission】 and recruiting this group of trash.
A Scarlet Drop Card produced by a sufficiently strong Reincarnator was enough to make up for the worthless drops of those weaklings.
At this point, Bai Cangshu was even starting to look down on the extraction of one or two points of attributes. Having experienced two bumper harvests of extracting over a dozen points of attributes, his Greed Sin was no longer easily satisfied.
He could feel that the human behind the wall was, at this very moment, rapidly growing stronger in aura and presence; that magnitude, that speed, was shocking.
The sound of that heartbeat, the sound of blood rushing, were undergoing huge changes every moment.
From a babbling brook, it had now become as surging as a torrential river.
Bai Cangshu walked toward the wall step by step, and the other party's Footwork sounded in synchronization. The two were soon staring at each other, separated only by a wall.
The next moment, Bai Cangshu raised both hands.
Bang!
A punch was thrown; the wall showed no change at all, but a surging Force had already passed through the wall and exploded with a boom.
Boom!
The pitch-black building seemed as if a high-yield bomb had been detonated inside, exploding with a boom; fragments of walls, steel bars, concrete, and various debris flew straight out toward the other side.
Boom!
Bai Cangshu's eyes flickered; a surging Force likewise traveled from the wall in front of him, which remained perfectly still, and struck his body directly.
Bai Cangshu's figure instantly slid backward.
This feeling... it was actually exactly the same as his own?!
